Freedom OSS Introduces freeCIM™ - Professional Open Source Quality Management Platform

Newtown, PA, October 31, 2008 --(PR.com)-- Problem Statement

Software development (and other engineering development areas) are devoid of any metrics to drive Management decision-making

Offshore/outsourced software development amplifies this problem because of time-zone differences, separate environments and fixed cost commitments

Vendor Management lacks the ability to monitor Offshore Vendors' Performance and create "Score Cards"

Project Management can't get real-time, comprehensive information about software artifacts being developed by Offshore Vendors

Executive Management does not have information that would show performance of an Offshore Vendor under a specific Project Manager – inability to understand the in-house Management talent for offshore development

freeCIM™ Solution and Features

Unlike many other Developer focused products,freeCIM™ is geared towards Program Management Office,Vendor Management and Executive Management

Engages Management by simplifying visibility into notoriously complex software artifacts

Enables real-time view of the "artifacts that count" instead of derivative project artifacts,such as Project Plans

Real-time metrics and statistics for various management stakeholders (Vendor Management Office,CTO/CIO, Project Management Office) to get a top-down view of a project's software artifacts quality

Enables Enterprise Level view of development artifacts (source code, configuration, etc) quality and adherence to standards

Very complex software artifact analysis is aggregated up to 3 very simple metrics areas:

Code Quality/Standards Adherence
Code Testability
Potential issues

Projects can be aggregated into Project Groups
Reports broken down by Vendor,Project, Project Manager

Aggregated,Multi–Project View

Project Scorecard–Red,Yellow or Green

Manager Performance View

Vendor Performance View
